    Need suggestions for GPS mounting

    I wouldn't be able to use a gps with just the voice alone because it would then just blend in with all the other voices in my head. Old Prof, If you wipe down the area with an alcohol wipe first where you want the tape to stick will sometimes work

    Longest Layover?

    10 days in El Paso during 4th of july week, you know when the plants shut down for change over. Took a load there from Brownsville on a friday, figured if I didn't take it I'd be sitting in Brownsville with 800 less dollars. Anyway there was no place to go and a long way to get there.

    Gifts for Expeditors

    Just a small correction on buying gas for a van at the flying j, you only need to purchase 20 gal. for a 1/2 shower credit. Which if you have a chevy/gmc van when your gauge shows 1/4 tank you should be able to squeeze in 20 gals.

    Panther people

    Legal headlamp?

    Alot of times it isn't that they are brighter but that they are out of adjustment. I had a 93' Ford that right after I bought it new I was being flashed by oncoming vehicles, I took it into dealer and they said out of adjustment and alot were coming out of the factory that way.
